Gruben Gipsy Star




The Elisabeth, the Helga and the Marta are three sloop-rigged dinghies. They are built at the Gruben shipyard by the lake Constanz in Germany.
A variety of options for trimming can guide a learner from the very first steps to quite advanced sailing. Their capacity for up to 5 persons (including crew) and huge storing space provide a silent alternative for day trips.
Advanced sailors will appreciate the installed trapezoide cables in combination with the trapeze-seats we will facilitate.

All three boats are equipped with a roller-furling genoa, permitting an easy and comfortable solution for stowing the head sail away when heavy wind requires it. Both, mainsail and genoa have several devices for trimming as it has become standard in this class of sailboats.
